MicroGrid with Fronius inverter at a fish farm in Mali

Optimum interaction between Fronius and Victron ensures savings of millions

Five tonnes of fish a day are produced by the Complex Agro Industrial de Baragnouma fish farm in Mali. One of the biggest challenges is maintaining a continuous power supply for the water treatment plant. A 30-minute power outage would mean the death of all the fish in the pools, resulting in huge financial losses.

 

In order to ensure a stable power supply, the company decided back in 2014 to cover as much of its needs as possible with photovoltaic energy.

 

With the solar system providing 98% of the firm’s energy requirements, only 2% is provided by backup diesel generators.
